You will have the option to use white clay and then paint what you make using a huge selection of beautiful glazes. Following your session your makes will be glazed in a clear gloss and fired ready to be collected at a later date from the studio or posted for an extra postage fee. Alternatively, you can choose to use air drying clay which will not need to be fired and can then be taken away with you on the day. Air drying clay dries hard, can be later painted using acrylic paint and will be decorative only whereas with white clay the dishes will become pottery following firing and can be used functionally.Enjoy this peaceful pottery class as stress-busting team building, some creative fun with family or friends or as a fun activity for a birthday celebration.
